Jimmy Kimmel is ripping the shit out of R's

Tonight, he looked like Jon Stewart or Stephen Colbert. It was pretty awesome to see another talk show host start getting ballsy with Rump at al. Seth Myers and Stephen Colbert are tearing in and Bill Maher has pulled out all the stops. It even sounds like Jimmy Fallon is getting peer pressured into criticizing at least Rump, but I've yet to see it.

He'd never criticize anyone. If he had Hitler on his show he'd just praise him for making the trains run on time.

He might do better as a Muppet for 5 year olds.
In addition to the sharp humor, I usually learn something fom Colbert, Myers, Kimmel, Stewart (miss you, guy), Trevor Noah, and John Oliver.
All are very bright. They take on social issues or Repubs, and go right to the unspoken spot of the matters, and turn them inside out.

When a comic says impeachment there's also a punchline
When Maxine says it, there's reverberations of power & authority
